I agree. It seems rather silly to specify a "mains" or other cable included with the equipment in the DoC or to have separate DoCs for each cable.

Does this mean that if leads are sold separately they must have a D of C? I assume that a lead provided with a piece of equipment would be covered by the D of C for that equipment.
